I was hoping for more from this. It was pretty much a primer of everything I already knew about rails metal and rack.

more details on Rack and how it works would have been good. Overall, good talk.

I could have got this by reading one blog post or a Readme.

Good follow up to yesterday’s Sinatra presentation. Probably would not have made experienced people happy as Adam started at a lower level with a good introduction. But that is a problem through out the conference so far. Either the people new to Rails are unhappy or the advanced are. It is impossible to provide information to satisfy both levels in a short presentation.

Gave me additional confidence to use SInatra/Metal in my application particularly in the API area.

Short and sweet like Sinatra

Too brief and too much of an overview. I can overlook the minor syntactic problems on the slides, but it would have been nice to see a full Rack+(Sinatra/Metal/Rails) instead of just the parts in isolation. More detail on Rack would have been a great step toward a better rating.

Nice presentation – I feel more confident about using metal and Sinatra

Good intro to Sinatra use in Rails. Would be nice to have more technical details – hard to do in 50 mins. Great presentation.
